Is It Possible to Have TOO MANY Sexual Partners?

Is It Possible to Have TOO MANY Sexual Partners?

Hey guys! It's me! JarHead!

Today we are going to discuss if it is possible to have TOO MANY sexual partners. Now, this isn't going to be gender biased and in here I'm going to touch lightly on why a person who has been with 100 other people sexually is less desirable than someone who has been with 50. Without further ado, let's go!

What EXACTLY is a slut/whore?

When we think about whores and sluts we think of the girls in high school who blew 80% of the football team. At least that what most guys will think. Girls are more likely to think about the 14 year old girl who lost her virginity to the senior at a house party. The problem is neither of these things are truly sluts. They are closer to just easy, desperate girls who enjoy the attention it gives them. Now don't get me wrong. I'm far from a sexual saint. I've had about 18 sexual partners (that I can recall at least) but I am no man whore. Is that number a little too high for me to feel good about my sexual tendencies?

Yeah. I'd rather it be lower than 18ish. So what constitutes someone being a slut or a whore? Well, simply put, someone who has a lot of sex outside of relationships. This can go for men and women. Straight and Gay. Trans and Binary. It's all the same. A slut is someone who has a lot of sex outside of relationships. One thing I always ask a potential sexual partner is this "Have you ever had casual sex?" if she answers yes? I will not sleep with her. My belief is that sex is something that should be an act between two adults that shows love and affection on the physical plane. I strongly believe that love making shouldn't be trivialized by people who seek it solely for pleasure. So once again a slut is someone who has a lot of casual sex.

====Remember this the next time you decide to mock someone for no reason====

Why is everyone a slut then?


Well to put it easily, not everyone is a slut. That's plain blanket judgement and it's unnecessary. When we assume that someone is this or that and we don't know them it serves only to prove how awful you are as a person. Though offense is taken and not given that doesn't mean that words don't hurt. I always try my best to air on the side of caution when analyzing a person. You can learn a lot more than you'd think by merely watching a person. How they interact, how they walk, how they talk, where they look, and their body language.

Odds are when you hear someone is a slut in high school they're the farthest thing from it. Everyone just do the whole globe a favour and don't fall into the trap that so many people fall into. Don't follow the crowd. When someone is doing something that is clearly wrong you have a few choices. Join in, Defend what's right, or walk away. The first one is never what you should choose. If you don't have the gut to stand up for what's right walking away is always the better option than joining in.

Is it possible to have TOO MANY sexual partners?

So in conclusion let's talk about if it is possible to have too many sexual partners.

Short answer? Yeah. Definitely. How many is too many is the real question. Really that depends on the person. If you're 25 and have slept with 80 people? Maybe it's time to re-evaluate your sense of self worth. If you're 60 and have slept with 80 people? That one is more understandable. My general rule of thumb is your number of sexual partners should never exceed the number of years you've spent on this planet. So why is someone who has been with 100 people unattractive? More experience should be a good thing no? Well, no.

One, just because a man or woman has had a lot of sexual partners doesn't mean they're good in bed. When a woman tells me she's been with 80 men I usually lose all sexual interest in her on the spot. If she's been with 80 men and not a single one of them thought she was worth a long term relationship? Obviously there's something wrong with her. Whatever that may be I know who my Mrs. Perfect is and obviously this girl isn't her. That isn't to say she isn't ANYONE'S Mrs. perfect. Just that she isn't mine personally.

There's also a certain degree of self restraint and self preservation instincts that are shown by people who are sexually conservative. Though that isn't to say someone who isn't sexually conservative lacks those qualities. Though one of the very few things I have learned in this life of mine is not to take people at face value. If someone claims to have restraint, isn't purely impulse driven, and is sexually responsible? A good way to prove that is not to throw yourself at anyone who can fog a mirror (or maybe people who can't if you're into that)

Is It Possible to Have TOO MANY Sexual Partners?

Needless to say not f*cking anything that moves is a good way to show characteristics that are commonly found attractive (guys I'm looking at you) and you'll have a lot more luck finding someone who respects you and your body if you show such character traits. Being a man who is driven mostly by Pride, Honour, Integrity, Strength, Passion, and Respect I always strive to show these things in my day to day life. Which is why I don't have any problems finding women. I deny all forms of sexual contact until date 5 or until we have been together for over a month and I make very few exceptions to that rule.

I also have the rule that the first time it happens she must ask for it plain and clear or it doesn't happen. Though, that is more something for my own defense. If she asks for it she can't cry rape if I end the relationship soon there after. I would do that and have done that in the past. Bad sex makes for a bad long term relationship. That's plain and simple fact that most anyone would agree with me on.

Anyways, thanks for reading!

Cheers!

  • I would be awestruck to meet someone who slept with more than 100 people. But... that insult list you showed expressed things perfectly. You can be insulted and degraded sexually, w/o even having to kiss anyone. So, who knows what the truth would be anyway...

    • Precisely the point :) thanks Vamps

  • Just one is too many. I've lost a LOT of innocence sleeping around, but in my celibacy I am getting it back. I want my next sexual partner to be the woman I am going to grow old and die with, my wife.

    • Welp, nothing wrong with wishing. funny enough, my friend (also in the 30's range) is doing the same thing. I went single a long time ago because i want to find someone who will last. But I still wanna get mine. so yea, still fucking. can't torture myself while i wait, im gonna have some fun first and get it out of my system. I told her it was a dumb idea. refusing yourself pleasure just because you want something to be automatic... what if the next person you have sex with STILL isn't that long term person and you break up? back to celibacy again? except this time with egg on your face? Just have one fun rather than wait till one drops in your lap... it doesn't work that way.

    • @Tdieseler I've never slept with a woman before. First off. And second off yeah, it does work exactly that way. Nobody knows exactly where their future mate is or they wouldn't be single any more. Yes, you can torture yourself, and it is agony waiting, but in the end I will be ready. I want her to have all of me, rather than what's left over after I sleep around with anyone willing to open her legs to me. This is the hard way. This way takes strength, determination, and resolve, and suffering. Truth is you just don't want to.

    • Spoken like a true virgin. Im gonna tell you what i tell female virgins, using your own words too. "Nobody knows exactly where their future mate is or they wouldn't be single any more"... even you don't know. So i tell the female virgins who think they "know" who it is and they get with someone who they "think" is "the one".. and give up the virginity, just for it not to "work out" down the line. Now what? The dumber ones are the ones who want to "wait till marriage"... The idea of keeping virginity for some allocated purpose in this day and age is now one of the dumbest concepts. The days of doing that are over. My friend (virgin) told me he was keeping his till marriage... i told him the honest truth how im gonna be porking his wife. Girls can get away with the virginity crap but as a guy, Experience is key.

    • Show All
  • I have had over 70 and hope to double that number before it is over lol

  • Sophisticated Take. Well written too. that whole "don't fuck more people than your age" thats more of a guideline... and for morons like me.. a challenge lol.
    As much as i try to stay unbiased, this is one of those things where double standards come into play. like if a woman has been with too many men, the question becomes "what is wrong about her that no one wanted her for more"
    but if a man has sex with too many women, then it becomes "well i guess he hasn't found the right one yet". its sad really and even sadder because i feel the same way if a woman has had many partners, while at the same time, being a man whore :) .
    Though there's nothing wrong with having many sexual partners, men's competitive nature with other men automatically creates a problem with it that never leaves.
    Women who are more commitment oriented tend to block it out and focus on the present and future.
    Many guys i know who are confirmed whores have told me that they would like their future wife to be virgins if possible, the nerve. Because at the rate at which they were going, there won't be any virgins left.

    I simply never ask questions like that and i try not to answer when asked.

  • I say, if you go in with the wrong attitude and get the wrong one, even one partner can pragmatically be one too many. I've only allowed one woman to get that close to me, and she turned out to be just as toxic - or worse - than the ones I kept slightly further away than that.

    You know a slut not by her number, but by her attitude. And the more you know about her history - including family history - the more red flags you have to go by. Garbage in, garbage out. Applies to women as much as to most other things.

    • Fair

  • Way too long of a My-take to read, LOL. but just from the title... yes there is a number that is too high (depending on your range and how many long relationships you've had).

  • Yeah there is definitely is such a thing as too many. I am morally opposed to casual sex and number over five is naturally makes me suspicious. No offense but my first thought after I read 18 was you should get check for STDs. The only time I may say someone is a slut or a man-whore is if they are openly bragging about their life-style like its something to be proud of. I just see casual sex as a lack of self-restraint.

    • I am 100% disease free I can assure you. I get tested monthly. Especially if I've had a recent partner. No need to worry about me :)

    • Good that's smart you can never be too careful.

  • No problem, you earned it! :)

    • Nah thank you

  • What's wrong with casual sex? If that's what someone wants to do then why is that seen as a bad thing?

    • Because it devalues sex.

    • @Maik567 Not really. Everyone has their own views of it.

    • Yeah and many people think it devalues sex and that's why they see it as a bad thing. I just answered your question.

    • Show All
  • yes there is such thing as too many sexual partners

  • I know someone who has been with more than 50 people and he's only 28

    • To be quite frank that's disgusting.

    • In his defence, he's a former soldier and being in a war zone has taken a toll on him

    • Is it too much? Lol

  • Depends. I never found women who had loads of sexual partners to be marriage material, good for a roll in the hay but not commitment.

    • I agree full width.

  • I don't go out of my way to find out a woman's past or number of partners but at the same time, when I go on OKCupid and look in the match questions and see a person answer No to the question of is it possible to have too many sex partners, I'm kinda like whaaaa!!!

    • I'll have to agree. The funny thing is you see most women answer no to that question lol

    • I don't know. I've seen most women answer yes to that question. Funny thing is though, the women who do answer no are the ones who complain about being slut shamed for sleeping around but won't hesitate to shame a guy if he's a virgin. If that's not hypocrisy then I don't know what is. Not that I'm a virgin but I've seen it happen.

  • Yes.

  • One per year for an SO? Too much for me, way too much. A 30 year old with 30 is a flat no. Double digits is a no.

    • I get that

  • You'll find out by the amount of STD you got.

    • If you've had 80 sexual partners you've probably picked up a few yeah.

    • @ThatJarHead Can be, can be but you can have still to much. It's weird and dirty when you had an whole block or hood on your dick.

    • Indeed.

  • Yes i know girls who sleep around but think they are miss perfects...

  • good point..

  • Congrats you wrote an entire take to disguise yourself bragging about your sex life... Congrats #NoBodyCares

  • More than 5 partners makes a woman a slut
